Step-by-step explanation:

-18/9 = 2, 9 goes into 18, 2 times, but  a negative divided by a positive always = a negative number so the answer would come out to be -2.  

-18/9 = 2, 9 goes into 18, 2 times, but  a negative divided by a positive always = a negative number so the answer would come out to be -2.  

however is you were typing -1.8 / 9 then it would be -0.2. Multiplying -0.2 * 9 would give you -1.8. Same rule applies as to why it's negative

Matteo has &400 in his saving account. on average he spends $10 per week on buying apps. Luca has $200 in his savings account. he is saving $15 a week in order to buy a new Playstation. When will matteo and luca have the same amount of money?

Answers

Answer:

8 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Matteo

Amount= $400

Spending per week= $10

Hence his balance after x weeks is given as

y=400-10x-------------1

Luca

Amount= $200

Spending per week= $15

Hence his balance after x weeks is given as

y=200+15x-------------2

Equate 1 and 2

400-10x=200+15x

collect like terms

400-200=15x+10x

200=25x

x= 200/25

x= 8 weeks

Hence it will take 8 weeks

Suppose that a committee is studying whether there is waste of time in our judicial system. It is interested in the mean amount of time individuals waste at the courthouse waiting to be called for jury duty. The committee randomly surveyed 81 people who recently served as jurors. The sample mean wait time was eight hours with a sample standard deviation of four hours. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean time wasted. Which distribution should you use for this problem

Answers

Answer:

The t-distribution is used, as we have the standard deviation of the sample.

The 95% confidence interval for the population mean time wasted is between 7.12 hours and 8.88 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which meas that the t-distribution should be used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 81 - 1 = 80

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 80 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 1.99

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.99\frac{4}{\sqrt{81}} = 0.88[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 8 - 0.88 = 7.12 hours.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 8 + 0.88 = 8.88 hours.

The 95% confidence interval for the population mean time wasted is between 7.12 hours and 8.88 hours.

The length of a rectangle is increasing at a rate of 9 cm/s and its width is increasing at a rate of 4 cm/s. When the length is 15 cm and the width is 12 cm, how fast is the area of the rectangle increasing

Answers

Answer:

The area of the rectangle is increasing at a rate of 168 square centimeters per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometrically speaking, the area of a rectangle ([tex]A[/tex]), in square centimeters, is described by following expression:

[tex]A = w\cdot l[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]w[/tex] - Width, in centimeters.

[tex]h[/tex] - Height, in centimeters.

By Differential Calculus, we find an expression for the rate of change of the area of the rectangle ([tex]\dot A[/tex]), in square centimeters per second:

[tex]\dot A = \dot w\cdot l + w\cdot \dot l[/tex] (2)

Where:

[tex]\dot w[/tex] - Rate of change of the width of the rectangle, in centimeters per second.

[tex]\dot l[/tex] - Rate of change of the length of the rectangle, in centimeters per second.

If we know that [tex]w = 12\,cm[/tex], [tex]l = 15\,cm[/tex], [tex]\dot w = 4\,\frac{cm}{s}[/tex] and [tex]\dot l = 9\,\frac{cm}{s}[/tex], then the rate of change of the area of the rectangle is:

[tex]\dot A = \dot w\cdot l + w\cdot \dot l[/tex]

[tex]\dot A = 168\,\frac{cm^{2}}{s}[/tex]

The area of the rectangle is increasing at a rate of 168 square centimeters per second.

Whales have one of the longest gestation periods of any mammal. According to a website, the mean gestation period for a whale is 15 months. Assume the distribution of gestation periods is Normal with a standard deviation of 12 months
a. Find the standard score associated with a gestation period of 13.8 months
b. Using the Empirical Rule and your answer to part a, what percentage of whale pregnancies will have a gestation period between 13.8 and 15 months?
c. Would it be unusual for a whole to have a gestation period of 21 months? Why or why not?
The standard score associated with a gestation period of 13.8 months is __________.

Answers

Answer:

a) The standard score associated with a gestation period of 13.8 months is of [tex]Z = -1[/tex]

b) 34% of whale pregnancies will have a gestation period between 13.8 and 15 months.

c) Since when [tex]X = 21[/tex], [tex]Z = 5 \geq 2[/tex], it would be unusual for a whale to have a gestation period of 21 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

If [tex]Z \geq 2[/tex] or [tex]Z \leq -2[/tex], the measure X is considered to be unusual.

According to a website, the mean gestation period for a whale is 15 months. Assume the distribution of gestation periods is Normal with a standard deviation of 1.2 months.

I corrected to 1.2 because it is what makes sense considering the questions.

This means that [tex]\mu = 15, \sigma = 1.2[/tex]

a. Find the standard score associated with a gestation period of 13.8 months

This is Z when X = 13.8. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{13.8 - 15}{1.2}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1[/tex]

The standard score associated with a gestation period of 13.8 months is of [tex]Z = -1[/tex]

b. Using the Empirical Rule and your answer to part a, what percentage of whale pregnancies will have a gestation period between 13.8 and 15 months?

The standard score associated with a gestation period of 13.8 months is of [tex]Z = -1[/tex], which means that it is one standard deviation below the mean.

The normal distribution is symmetric, which means that of the approximately 68% of measures within one standard deviation of the mean, 68%/2 = 34% are within one standard deviation below the mean(in this case, 13.8) and the mean(in this case 15), and 34% are within the mean and one standard deviation above the mean.

So 34% of whale pregnancies will have a gestation period between 13.8 and 15 months.

c. Would it be unusual for a whale to have a gestation period of 21 months? Why or why not?

Let's find the z-score

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{21 - 15}{1.2}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 5[/tex]

Since when [tex]X = 21[/tex], [tex]Z = 5 \geq 2[/tex], it would be unusual for a whale to have a gestation period of 21 months.

A jar contains n nickels and d dimes. There is a total of 257 coins in the jar. The value of the coins is $17.35. How many nickels and how many dimes are in the jar?

Answers

Answer:

Here's what we know:

n + d = 20 (there are a total of 20 nickels and dimes)

.05n + .1d = 1.4 (total change equals $1.40)

There are a couple of ways to solve this. You can go the elimination method by multiplying the second equation by an amount to get rid of a variable, or we can go substitution by isolating a variable in the first equation. I'll go with elimination in this case:

-10(.05n + .1d = 1.4) this will cause the d-variable to equal 0:

n  +  d = 20

-.5n - d = -14

------------------

.5n = 6

n = 12

Now that we know n, we can solve for d:

12 + d = 20

d = 8

Check:

.05 * 12 + .1 + 8 = 1.4

.6 + .8 = 1.4

1.4 = 1.4
